Route 66 was a mostly two lane highway that extended from Chicago to Los Angeles, through Illinois, Missouri, Kansas, Oklahoma, Texas, New Mexico, Arizona, and California, before gradually giving up to the modern interstate. Most of the old pavement is still there, and can be followed with the right maps and directions. I drove the entire length of old 66 in 2012, and invite you to follow along!

Illinois Route 66 - Cayuga
CAYUGA, ILLINOIS. An old Meramec Caverns Barn
on an Illinois farm shows how things were advertised before TV and the
Internet. (The farm's main profit center is on the left.) The barn was
restored in 1998 by the Illinois Preservation Committee.
